Don't lose this one!! The language here reminds me somewhat of "glimpse" and we want those encouraging voices, rebirthed and rekindled, to go on "calling out to all" and not be lost into that "unstable spectrum"! The imagery takes me straight into and back to that stained-glass window and, in the light of my experience at the weekend in that brightly-lit, tiny church in Dorset where George Washington's forebears (and your Stars And Stripes flag!) hailed from, compounds thoughts and ideas reverberating in your "hinged" poem "breeding ground". Growth, movement in both these poems is swift and sudden, like a quickening: those first flashes felt by the mother of her baby moving in her womb. One of my favourite "wings-pairings" for your Acts Of Flight collection, Amigo! :)) xx
Ethereal and evocative imagery that encourage diversity of voices. The poem carries the "blueprint" to rekindle imagination and raise a POV from personal to omniscient plane. Yes, Prometheus we are seeing with ears :)
so much said in these "loaded verses" - organic, passionate creative force of the universe--UP! I just wish I could hear "the atmospheres of encouraging voices" more often...
nice to read you (from an original fellow New Yorker)
Jude,
The spirit rises, soars in hope and hopefully in reality after the mortal coil and all that; meanwhile, imagination does a superb job in this great poem.
Jude,
This poem for me is a journey into the atmosphere seeking refuge in the lightness of being. Sometimes darkness invades our soul and it is at that moment we make a decision to seek only lightness. There are many light workers who claim to know all and be all, well if you have to make any type of claim then are you really? Today, is the beginning of your new dawn, tread lightly and passionately.
Wonderful poetry that triggers the imagination and wisdom.
The human dichotomy; we are both physical and spiritual beings, which makes for some interesting images in the mirror. Life is all about creating a balance between these two human aspects and still enjoying all of life. Like the budding thought you refer to, we are in a constant state of growth, both on a physical and a spiritual plane. Very well done, Jude.
Take care,
Sherry
I see the light from heaven embrace the new born leaf as it sprouts its way up towards full growth assisted by both heaven and earth!
nicely done Jude!;)
